A customer complained that the image on the underwear resembled the Nazi leader saluting as planes passed overhead.‘Next’, the fashion retailer, said that it had investigated the complaint and found the image, among a series of cartoons, was inspired by a picture of Lenin, the former Soviet leader.
But a spokesman told The Sun it was withdrawing the remaining 5,200 pairs of the underwear anyway. He said: "The complaint came in today and by the end of the day all 5,200 will be withdrawn.
"We have checked with the designer who confirmed the image was inspired by Lenin. Nonetheless, if even one customer is offended or upset we are happy to withdraw the range."
The customer who complained, Ben Radomski, said he was happy the product had now been withdrawn.
